I thought I had missed a post but - there isn't anything on the OOC comm?

Nah, people are just going with the scraps on the voting pages for now.

oh okay another case of people jumping the gun

I kind of wish that would... not happen

I think part of it's that people are kinda full of "...there's nothing we can do here" on the current stuff as well as wanting to get something basic out framework wise.

I know, but I'd really like to have info first because otherwise we end up with the Dolorosa walkabout all over again

some day someone is going to wind up plotting something totally unfeasible, if that hasn't already happened

(I usually steer clear of early plotting plurks, so I have no idea if it has)

I mean. See the Dolorosa walkabout shitstorm

even if half the plotting that went down did actually end up happening, there were a lot of hurt feelings there

yeah I thought I missed something too

from what I've seen it's been mostly "hey, you want to be related/involved together somehow?" stuff

we are admitedly rather good at attempting to plot with zero info whatsoever

and for me at least, it can come with the caveat of "all of this may change when we do get plot into"

I'd rather have to revise ideas than try to shoehorn myself in to things at the last minute, tbh.

nope. I shared an early draft with a few people a couple weeks back to see if I was on a decent course, but it isn't specifically those folks who are plotting now

haha, no, as one of the people who saw that draft

(which is why I was both waiting and confused - one of the infiltrator roles may be something I'm interested in)

and if everyone held off plotting nobody would have to shoehorn themselves in

I just know I like mob better than ninjas so unless something SUPER COOL happens in ninjas walkabout is more likely for me

because it... wouldn't be last-minute any more?

yeah, all those details will be filled in AFTER I move, but a week or more before Jaunt start

that's totally true though and I won't lie I saw some plurks go up like FFFFFUCKKKK GOTTA GET ON IT

which isn't awesome

I've been sick and slammed with school work so I was just like 'wait, I'm so lost and confused'

yeah, i had a brief moment of "shit shit don't even know if i'm back in yet is stuff up?? "

I guess my experience has been different.

then i realized that it was probably since the walkabout voting just closed, which means people are going to be picking what they think they'll want to go on

I've found that it's easier to get something when you have a loose idea already established for yourself than when you try to plan with everyone when info drops.

I mean I usually end up fucked either way, honestly, but I had better luck earlier on when people waited.

atm, I think it's mostly the walkabout that's getting more defined planning? at least from what I've seen.

The only reason I have anything for this is because the basic plot description is already close to PMK canon enough to know what I wanna do.

And I have no ideas or plotting beyond that.

for Ninjas it's mostly stuff about whether you'll investigate or infiltrate, and very vague potential relationships

Sorry if I contributed to that in any way. I just felt useless re: the end of this Jaunt and wanted to be excited about the game again, since I've been feeling so out of sorts in regards to RP and writing.

If you'd rather I take my plotting private I will happily do so

it wasn't really any one single person so much as the... phenomenon? Which - this isn't the first time this has happened, honestly

No, it isn't
